Setting up with Sewa Kroetkov
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 дек 2024
- I have been getting a lot of DM’s with questions about what board size, truck size and wheel size I ride, so I decided to make a segment in which I break down my set up. My goal was to go a bit more into detail about my board so that you get an understanding of my preference.
Hit the comment section with any questions or remarks.
Much love to everybody who subscribed so far!

Sewa is da best :)
He so feckin is
Yessir
You probably dont care at all but does someone know of a tool to log back into an instagram account??
I stupidly forgot my password. I would love any tricks you can give me.
@Solomon Shepard Instablaster =)
@Elliott Josiah i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site on google and Im in the hacking process atm.
Seems to take quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
You should do trick tutorials. But not like the average ones you see all over RUclips. Do like thorough tutorials explaining every little thing you do to make your tricks look that good. Especially kickflip. I'd be happy just to be able to kickflip atleast half as good as you can!
The sk8 Lyf he’s lagging on that huh
FS flip
The sk8 Lyf He actually did many trick tips back in the day
Definitely gonna do trick tutorials and break down the tricks the best way I can :)
Coming very soon!
@@SewaKroetkov Good idea! Also how you do technical combo's. No one is teaching that on youtube. Groeten uit Enschede!
One of the best styles in the game!
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼👊🏼
Sewa hella a cool dude. He gave me props and was stoked for me on a manual trick I did at Belmont high. Super humble dude
Always hyped to see people do a dope manny! 🙌🏼 keep it up 👊🏼👊🏼
Love Sewa's style of skating. Nothing but clean, calm, & complete control of his board.
🙏🏼🙏🏼😁👊🏼
I quit skating in my early 20's and went into mma & bodybuilding for 12years I went from 70kgs to 125kgs at my heaviest, I quit bodybuilding 4years ago and started skating again at the start of covid due to the streets being so empty, which made them ideal for skating, I was 105kgs at this time and had a habit of putting too much power into all my flips, almost 2years of inconsistent skating... until I started watching your videos before I go skate. Trying to copy your flow/relaxed style of skating removed the barrier that was preventing me from landing more difficult flip tricks. Thank you man. You make it look effortless.
Hands down the greatest style I've ever seen and he u deserve legend status bro keep it up fam
Sewa goes ham wit the frontside flips
One of my fav tricks 😁🙏🏼👊🏼
I'm sure whatever content you put out will be awesome. You kill it on and off the board!
Thank you! Got more coming up! Appreciate the support 👊🏼👊🏼
@@SewaKroetkov no worries! Good to hear! Appreciate you taking the time to reply, very humble of you.
👊
Much probs for landing over your bolts and so clean on such a consistent basis . Its incredible . Great setup video . Love Venture lows myself . I agree 51mm wheels are perfect on them . But seems they are a truck people absolutely love or hate with a passion . Good luck in all your future sponsorship endevours
Thanks for the kind words 🙏🏼 haha you’re totally right about people’s love / hate for the trucks! There’s definitely no in between 😅😆
❤️
Much love ❤️ 🙏🏼👊🏼

Are you planning on doing trick tutorials? Would love that!
FS flip
Yessss 😁
@@petrnykl420 a must
Sewa Kroetkov your FS Flips are a thing of beauty 🙏🏼👌🏼
One of the most proper and detailed set-up video, not too short, not too long and every part of the board has its own of your history. Probably could use a mic next time, but great vid! Subbed.
Thank you! We used a mic, but definitely have to do an extra sound check on the vid before I post something next time. Happy you liked it and appreciate the feedback! 🙏🏼👊🏼👊🏼
Great video! You're the reason why I started riding Venture lows. Find so much more control and stability with them. This is coming from a guy who rode Gullwings, Grind Kings, and Independents ... guess I am showing my age, eh? Keep doing what you do and hope you find a new board sponsor soon. You have the best style and the sickest bag of tricks in the game. Any company would be stoked to have you.
Haha that’s dope! I feel the same way about Venture lows. Happy to see you like em too! Always appreciate the support man! 🙏🏼👊🏼👊🏼
Jeez I forgot about Gullwings
Cool technique to finish up the grip tape with the knife instead of with the left over griptape haha. Will try it out next time!
Ran into you at some spots...Thanks for being the nicest dude in skateboarding!!.. Sewa for SOTY 2019!!
Appreciate that! Thanks for the good vibes! Keep it up 🙏🏼👊🏼👊🏼
Huge fan, I love your style and the pop you get is insane... not just on a few but every single trick 🤟🤟🤟
much love from 🇨🇦
Man, are you planning something with Shane O'Neill? Both of you are using blank decks...
shane is starting his own brand
@@joaopa00 yeah, i know, but i'm asking if maybe they're doing it together
Got nothing planned together. However, Shane is a smart guy and knows what he’s doing, so I think his company is gonna turn out really good :)
@@SewaKroetkov for sure!!! Thanks man, you're such an inspiration for me. Shout out from Brazil!!! 🇧🇷👊🏻
@@viniciuservilha5732 will be awesome if sewa joins shane company
You have so much board control its crazy. You're like a robot!
Bleep bleep 🤖

I'm already looking forward to the trick tips, success bro!
Coming up soon 😁😁😁
Awesome :)
Sewa I love your skateboarding style.
Could you make a video with tips for getting tricks cleaner?
For example, do you focus on your shoulders and back position when u skate?
Does it matter if i place whole foot on a board when i skate or should i rather skate on my toes?
Those questions may sound silly but for a beginner like me it may be a life changer :D
No worries! Those questions aren’t silly at all.
I know some people focus on their back position and shoulders, but I honestly just focus on my lower body when I skate. Perhaps that’s why my upper body is usually doesn’t move too much (some might even call it stiff) when I’m skating.
I prefer to place my whole foot on the board, cause that way I feel more balanced.
If you’re a beginner then I would just advise you to try out different foot positions and just feel out what makes you feel the most comfortable / stable on your board, and then take it from there.
Tips on getting tricks clean. When I was 12 my homie and I used to play SKATE and we would only count tricks if it was landed bolts. As a result it became natural to start landing the majority of the tricks bolts.
I hope this helps. Keep pushing and have fun! 🙏🏼👊🏼👊🏼
@@SewaKroetkov thanks :) thats really helpful!
My pleasure 😊 keep it up and don’t give up 👊🏼👊🏼
@@SewaKroetkov that bolts only SKATE sounds like a pretty cool idea, I can see why you skate so damn clean!
Haha that was my homies’ idea. It definitely helped! However, he pissed off a lot of other people when he would tell them that their tricks didn’t count cause not ALL the bolts were covered 😅😂
The man! Sewa love the set up, i havent been able to get away from 53mm for a while ive always felt like 51s would be the good middle
I guess you can always try out a different size, but if 53 mm has been working for you for a while, then I would say just stick to those.
I guess it also depends on your truck height. I ride low trucks, so with any wheels above 51mm I’ll get wheel bites pretty quick.
Super cool Sewa 🛹📹👌🏻. Stoked to follow.
Thank you 🙏🏼👊🏼
Can’t wait to see your part for the new board company of Shane O’Neil!! 😁
As of now it looks like it’s not going to happen anytime soon 😆
However, I believe that his brand is gonna be really dope!
Sewa Kroetkov no way I can’t believe you stay without any board sponsor!! Hope to see a new part soon anyway 🙂
Haha no worries :)
When I left Blind I knew that there’s a chance that I would be without a board sponsor for a while, but I’m honestly not stressed about it.
Definitely have some type of part dropping soon!
Sewa Kroetkov Nice can’t wait to see that! I’m not to worried for you you’ll find something soon ^^ ps: short story: I saw you long time ago in New York for the Red Bull many mania (you were amateur and you won) and my little bro did it as well as French and he finished 4 or 5 I think (he did some wheeling lazer haha). Since this day your one of the fav skater of him and he told me “no one is more consistent than this dude remember him!” I think he was right! Haha thanks to have answered me you kill it ! Keep shredding it’s so good to see your footage you have a unique style 👊👊👊
Damn that was a while ago! Really appreciate the kind words man! Keep it up and say hi to your brother as well! Hope everything’s good! 🙏🏼👊🏼👊🏼
The best fs flip

I'm so happy you made a channel
Thank you! Really appreciate that! More vids are coming up 😁

Hey Sewa where is a good place to get these blank decks I see often? Kinda like the look and was wondering if they are any good?
What kind of bushings do you have in the ventures?
What's your opinion on Lo's vs Hi's ?
Great Video man ~
just in time because I plan to set up my own soon, and idk what I'm doing haha
Nice! Feel free to hit me with any questions about your set up 😊
Damn that shit came out good ! Props
Thanks man 🙏🏼👊🏼👊🏼
Do you have a link to your blank decks? I love the steep concave and shape.
Have you tried Venture hi trucks? I’m deciding on trying some ventures. Just not sure on hi or low
Love your style bro.. 👍👍👍
more vids will be highly appreciated.. 😉
Greetings from Czech Republic 🇨🇿
Thank you man! Appreciate the love! keep it up out in Czech Republic 👊🏼👊🏼
And yeah! More vids are on the way!
Looking forward to see more of your sk8 magic as I really love your style combined with ol' the insane tricks which seemed to me as impossible in time when I wuz skatin approx 20 ys ago..
btw r u gonna join BAB again..? hope yeap..
Take care.
Ps if u would be interested to come to CZ feel free to contact me.. daddyjaypce@gmail.com
I'm a big fan! 🇧🇷 anda muito! 🔥
Since the 300 subs! 💪 And waiting your trick tip, master!
Really appreciate that! 🙏🏼 trick tips coming very soon😁
Thanks man, you're the best!
The thing I've always hated about venture trucks is that after a decently long time skating them the baseplate holes turn to ovals even if you were to tighten your bolts regularly
Yeah it takes a little while but it does happen at some point. Do you feel like it doesn’t happen with other truck brands?
Sewa Kroetkov thunder hollow lights are the worst for it
Man I was obsessing over what setup you might be using! THANKS. Can I ask you, do you ever miss the big shoes? I only like small ones for my bigger setup, with my smaller board I like the old-school shoes. Just got a pair of Chet Thomas IVs 😎 wish I could also get another pair of the DC wolf S......seen you rip some sick tricks in those
I don’t really miss the size of the big / bulky shoes, but I miss how durable the shoes were compared to most shoes nowadays. There are a lot of really stylish shoes nowadays, but most of them are unfortunately not durable 😩
@@SewaKroetkov I thought so actually! Some of them were ridiculous looking and too big 😂. Anyway, I know he's your nemesis but the Etnies Chris Joslin Pro is probably 4x more durable than any other shoe like that I've tried. So excited for more videos and more of your skating. Hopefully I can see you shred in person one day. Shouts out from Detroit MI!!!!!!!!!!
Why did you leave Blind Skateboards? Have you got any plans/contacts for a future board sponsor or just leaving this to the flow and seeing how it goes?
Why I left Blind is a bit too long of a story to write, but I can say that I left on good terms.
Right now I’m going with the flow and I’ll see where it takes me :)
Yay sewa haven't seen ur videos in a while glad u left blind on good terms go kroetkov
Got some more vids coming up, and I’ll definitely drop some type of street part soon!
We 🖤 ya man!
Appreciate the love! Much love back 🙏🏼👊🏼
Hey G, always the best at styling tricks! What's your opinion about Thunder Trucks? Love from Scotland 🏴❤
I skated Thunder trucks for a little bit back in the day. I think they’re great trucks and probably a perfect combination between an independent truck and a venture truck. Personally I like to stick to Venture because I love how solid they feel when I do certain flips and manual combo’s.
Much love! Keep it up in Scotland! 🏴 👊🏼👊🏼
Awesome video
Thank you! 🙏🏼👊🏼
Yooo your my favorite skate sewa
❤️🙏🏼👊🏼
Hey sewa, what bushings do you use hard or soft and do you ride loose medium or tight
Thanks 🙏🏻
I use Venture (pre 2012 trucks) stock bushings, which are soft/medium at first, but once you start breaking them in they get hard pretty quick.
I like my trucks somewhere between medium and tight. Tight enough so that flip tricks feel solid, but not too tight so that I can still turn and cruise around comfortably
trick tips PLEASE. how to make tricks look GOOD. i can already do most basic tricks, but how to make them look so clean and proper?
Trick tips are coming up and I’ll definitely do my best to break down the tricks as best as I can :)
And to get back to you on doing tricks clean.
When I was 12 my homie and I used to play SKATE and we would only count tricks if we landed bolts. As a result you start getting used to land bolts most of the time.
Landing bolts definitely feels good, but I would have to say that it doesn’t always necessarily look better. Sometimes it looks pretty cool when somebody doesn’t land bolts and has a certain flair / lean to their roll away
Cool brohh😎
😁👊🏼
i like his style
This is bread Sewa 😎
🙏🏼👊🏼
Great video man!
I think you could put the audio a little bit higher.
Btw, we want more videos!!! Peace!
Happy you liked it! I got more vids coming up and I’ll definitely put the audio up a bit on my next vids! Appreciate the feedback! 👊🏼👊🏼
Get this man a sponsor
Haha all good! Kind of enjoy riding blanks now. Appreciate it though! 👊🏼👊🏼
Can you Pleaaaseee do an in depth Tutorial on how to Kickflip Crook Sewa?? You do them sooo casually .
Got some other trick tips coming first, but that one’s definitely on my trick tip list!
I like your board colour
Привет из Краснодара Sewa you legends.
Привет из Лос-Анджелес 👊🏼👊🏼
Thanks Sewa! why no high trucks? for better flipping?
I like the timing of the pop with low tricks, cause it gives it a quicker snap. I actually switched trucks recently though.. I’ll do a 2nd set up video soon and go more into detail about the trucks :)
that fakie flip :0
Greetings from Poland Sewa :D
Poland in the house!! 🇵🇱 🙏🏼👊🏼👊🏼
You're my favorite skater
Thank you! 🙏🏼👊🏼
Braziiiil !!! 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
🇧🇷🙌🏼🙌🏼👊🏼
Is fucking awesome!!! Sewa é bruto!!!
Muy buenos tus videos.
I’m finally starting to learn flips out of Manuels do you have any tips on adjusting my foot position with out losing the Manuel
That’s dope! Depending on how long the manual pad is, it always helped me to start moving my foot a little bit after I pass half the manny pad. Also make sure to not move your foot too quick or too drastically so that you don’t lose your manual.
I hope this feedback helps.
I’ll have some more detailed trick tips on manuals coming up as well :)
Sewa Kroetkov I’ll give it a try thanks sewa
I need a nollie heelflip crook tutorial with some slowmo footage and how to get a solid pop and flick consistently
I got the trick, but I don’t think I’ll be able to give proper trick tips for that one 😬 you got it though! 👊🏼👊🏼
Please I beg of you
Damn
What about a nollieheel crook in slow mo for me to take note of?
I just posted one on Instagram and one on my insta story. You could screen record it and play it in slow mo. Hope it helps man! You got it 👊🏼👊🏼
Talk about your shoes preferences too!
Why always those dark blue (maybe Adidas) ones? What shoe profile u like? You were wearing a pair of crazy beautiful Fila's really similar to those Adidas some time ago.. why?
1!
The navy shoes are the Adidas Ronan’s, which is a shoe they stopped making in 2013 I believe. I skated that shoe back in 2012 and it was one of my favorite shoes.
Last year I found a store in LA that was still selling those shoes, so I ended up buying 26 pairs in total so that I would have good shoes for a while 😅
I was skating some Fila’s a little while ago cause I thought they looked cool and I just wanted to see how they would skate. Even though those Fila’s aren’t skate shoes they still lasted me longer than any skate shoe out there 😅🤷♂️
I know that 10 or 20 years ago 8.1 probably would’ve seemed like it was pretty big but it still seems insanely small to me haha.
Haha so true man! Nowadays all the kids ride 8.25 or up. I’m just worried that once I start skating wider than 8.1 then my flips won’t feel the same 😅
Sewa you're te best,say hi to brazil.
Brazil in the house! 🇧🇷🙌🏼🙌🏼
Why those bushings are white?. White bushings only comes with Venture Hollow Lights. Does you request for it or it just comes with it?. I'm curious to know since I skated ordinary, hollow and hollow lights Venture Trucks.
They have white bushings in non hollow Venture’s too. Just depends per colorway
Im a Huge Fan watching all of your vids could you put the links of the products in the Bio would be Great greetings from Vienna
What bushing do you ride ? Stock ventures or bones ?
Stock Ventures :)
I’m honestly not too hyped on the bones ones.. they always blow out too quick
Sewa Kroetkov Yesh I’ve been having that problem a lot. Ima take your advice. I like the channel and how straight up you are. Keep up the great work man
tutorial de 360 flip, please
Trick tips are coming soon 😁
I think I saw a 360 flip tutorial by sewa somewhere on youtube. its called 6 steps or something. It helped me out with my 360 flips back then.
